Yay Saskatchewan!

On Friday, my province legalized gay marriage. That makes seven out of thirteen jurisdictions in Canada where it's legal.

Not surprisingly, the Saskatchewan Party is criticizing the NDP for not challenging the court decision. And Alberta has passed legislation defining marriage as exclusively heterosexual. It's this kind of thing that makes me unwilling to see the right-wing parties ever gain power. Yes, they'll eventually be voted out, but who knows how much damage they'll do in the meantime?

If you're looking for a place to move, the following provinces allow gay marriage:
  • Saskatchewan (yay!)
  • Manitoba
  • Ontario
  • Quebec
  • Nova Scotia
  • British Columbia
  • the Yukon Territories
